Come now, watch with every palm, how each single thing becomes apparent.
Don’t hold anything you see as any more of an assurance than what you hear.
Or give those loud sounds you happen to be hearing, preference over the sharp tastes on your tongue.
Everything is equal.
Don’t focus too much on seeing, seeing and the hearing have to go hand in hand.
And don’t reject the assurance provided by any other sense that offers some passage for perception, but perceive how each single thing becomes apparent .

Empedocles (from Peter Kingsley)
